All books are
highly recommended by Pluto, Taz, Quigley and Dobie. The kittens,
Hekat and Lugh, are too young to read so they recommentd the books
with all the pictures and BIG print. You can read more about these
furry friends at the very first web page made by the proprietor at

This
easy to use reference for cat owners is divided into two sections:
the first lists signs of diseases and health problems alphabetically,
and the second provides details of the signs, causes and treatments
of the health problems diagnosed with the help of the first section.
This is designed to be used by the reader when examiningor observing
his cat, and symptoms are carefully indexed to enable reference to
associated signs and possible diagnosis. Each section has informative
veterinary advice on causes, diagnoses and appropriate treatment.Bradley

REVIEW
provided by Seraphine in California:
The perfect book for the person who does not want to run to the vet
for everything. On two pages (per illness) you get discription of
problem, how to treat it, what medications can be given, recovery
time and much much more. Perfect for someone who has lots of animals,
for someone who does not have lots of money to spend on vets, for
someone who lives too far from convienent vet care, for someone who's
interested in doing as much vet care himself/herself before rushing
to vet, for someone who wants to know more than what their vet has
told them.

"There
has been much debate about the position of the cat in ancient Greece
and Rome. Artistic representations are sometimes ambiguous, and its
role as a mouse-catcher seems often to have been carried out by weasels.
Other evidence clearly suggests that the cat was as important to Greeks
and Romans as it is to many modern people."--BOOK JACKET. "This book
is the first comprehensive survey of the evidence about cats in Greece
and Rome, and of their functions and representations in art. Donald
Engels draws on authors from Aesop to Aristotle; on vase-painting,
inscriptions and the plastic arts; and on a thorough knowledge of
zoology of the cat. He also sets the ancient evidence in the wider
context of the Egyptian period that preceded it, as well as the views
of the Church fathers who ushered antiquity into the Middle Ages."--BOOK
JACKET.

A
reader from California: "an almost "purr-fect" cat encyclopedia"
After buying many encyclopedia cat books (6 in all) and continually
being disappointed in the lack of detailed information on many subjects,
such as the differences in personalities among the various breeds,
I have finally found, what I believe, is the
definitive book on cat breeds. Ms. Helgren has taken her time to explain
the dissimilarities among each breed and has done so in an extremely
interesting and concise profile form. She has used easy to read charts
for showing the various levels of behavior and general care concerns
for each type. There's even a chapter on how to choose the best cat
for YOUR personality. This is an excellent book and I highly recommend
it to anyone who is either beginning a search or just wants to find
out more about these wonderful feline companions.
